How to find the integral that generates $X$ number in Maple 17?

72 Views Asked by At

By a challenge of my calculus' professor, we have to find a integral that generates a $8$ digit number, such as $12345678$. Since there is an infinite number of integrals that could result in a $8$ digit number, is there a way to do it in Maple, in order to list some of the integrals that could do it?

To close this out: an example of an integral that produces the number $N$ is $$ \int_0^1 N ~ dx = \left. Nx \right|_0^1 = N\cdot1 - N \cdot 0 = N. $$

$11! = \int_0^\infty x^{11}e^{-x}\ dx$.

Anyway, since as you say there are infinitely many, come up with your own!

As mentioned in the comment by Rob Bland, you can use any known integral.

My integral of choice would be $$\int_0^{12345678} 1dx=12345678$$
